Paul,
nice selection that pretty much covers everything that was there. Not the largest, but a very pleasant and relaxed event nonetheless. Catching the action on the Saturday was a real bonus. I know your personal favourite is the powerhouse that is the T-5 , but for me it is the US-1A. Being the US-1A's last year in service it is obviously 'doing the rounds' at events before it retires. But there are very few events where it actually arrives and leaves from the water.


Paul.

That was some good collection,especially the flying boat

Mr. Martin. Pedant mode engaged after large single malt. It's not a flying boat, it's an amphibian. A flying boat cannot land on hard surfaces. Traditionally, flying boats only operate of water, incapable of anything else. Llovely pics.

Excellent set of photos, I might just decide to make that trip, for all those lovely F-4's, F-15's
